quick filler

i was walking somewhere today and there was a kid walking behind me with something wrong with his throat. he kept like coughing, but it was more like clearing his throat, except it went on for a few minutes. it sounded like he was practicing clearing his throat, trying to make the perfect clearing throat sound.

this was weird for me because i kept thinking that i was doing something wrong, and he was trying to let me know about it, because i thought that is the only reason people actually clear their throats. so i kept turning around and seeing if he would say something to me, and i tried to think if i could be offending him somehow. eventually i concluded that he just had a dry throat but to be honest i'm still not sure.

oh yeah he was asian. that's kind of an important part of the story because i feel like asian people are more likely to be offended by something i'm doing.

I don't even understand what you are trying to do. I don't think you are trying to be funny because even you cant think that was a funny post. Was it supposed to be interesting? What's next the list of things you do after waking up and before taking a shower?

okay, you don't like my posts. no one is making you read them religiously.

i thought this went without saying, but i guess it is not clear to you: i don't owe you anything.

Thanks for the Pacific nod, Al. It really means a lot. And so do you. In the abstract.

All I am saying is that you should start your own blog. Your posts are different from dan's and by different i mean worse. Some people might like them so let them read them on your new blog. I see no reason to combine your posts with dan's.
